Vienna - Day Five Imperial Treasury

The most important treasury in the world is reason indeed to be amazed: Here, in the oldest part of the Imperial Palace (13th century), you find not only the Emperor’s Crown of the Holy Roman Empire (circa 962) and the Austrian Emperor’s Crown (1602), but also the Burgundian Treasure from the fifteenth century and the Treasure of the Order of the Golden Fleece. This is home to the fascinating treasures from the possessions of the Habsburgs and you can easily spend hours looking at the collection.
